    We will put some hurt on this team. That last game's not sitting well.

    Nothing like a game against the Lakers to get the offense back

    Good chance for us to get the ball moving like earlier in this short season. We haven't looked the same since the Spurs game in my opinion.

    With Nick Young back hopefully our bench can stop him from going off

    I'm worried about what appears to be regression by the team since the beginning of the season. Hopefully it's just a funk and they can snap out of it. Lakers currently up 15 at half in ATL and put up 67.

    Lakers' offense looks good. Trap game?

    Lakers didn't look that bad tonight with swagggy p now in Their rotation, hill was a beast on the boards it seemed like he was grabbing every important board and Kobe was Kobe.

    It could be a trap game in that the Lakers' main weakness is that they're the worst team in the league defensively. If the Rocket offense is wheezing against anyone at the moment (such as PHI and OKC) because they're in a deep slump, then they can be outscored by anyone.

    If they can knock down some threes at a decent clip, I think they'll be fine.

    Lol.. Boozer and lin went 16-21, jordan hill had his best game of the season, and they still allowed the Hawks to come back and make a game of it. This is not a good team, but when you're slumping, none of that matters

    The Lakers are scoring in the 100's...the Rockets are having a hard time getting to a 100...Even though this game is the 2nd game in the b2b for the Lakers, they will look to get revenge for the earlier loss...Expect them to come gunning. Especially Kobe. Hoping the Rockets wake up from their shooting slump, or they'll risk losing to a bad basketball team.

    The Leaker got the win against an in form Hawks team. EC team be EC team, but it's a win.

    It's definately a danger game for the Rockets.

    Swaggy p coming back could be a factor. We need to jump on them fast. Dwight needs to dominate
